Passkeys criticism
The gist
A developer's blog post "I don't like passkeys" argues passkeys suit corporate use but not personal security.
The debate matters because passkeys are being pushed as the default login.
How it unfolded
- Sep 13, 2026Tech Insider Canada publishes a 13-step guide to setting up passkeys and SSH Agent in 1Password, noting passkeys are now a distinct item type across Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android.
- Sep 14, 2026Andy Diaz posts on Facebook that digital security has grown from "just make a password" to unique passwords, passkeys, authenticators, backup codes, and session checks, calling passkeys his favorite example of newer tools making things easier.
- Sep 15, 2026WWPass publishes an enterprise guide stating FIDO2 passkeys are phishing-resistant but most passkey flows still begin with a username lookup, leaving directory identifiers breachable or enumerable.
